What was one of the major points of Ken Robinson's talk?

A major point of his talk was that people back in nineteen hundreds looked at education as to being able to get a job so more completed high school & went to college.

Now a days (21st Century) kids are less motivated to complete high school or go to college because you dont need to complete high school to get a job.

Graphic Design Principles

1. Organizing Elements: in whatever you design, you have to make sure that the texture, color, shape & the size are blended in to look right.

2. Balance Around The Optical Center: in whatever you design, you will have to use different colors and when to colors are close to one another, you have to use the symmetric balance to see what  is needed to be seen.

3. Balance The Weight of Graphic Elements: in whatever you design, if your words need to look a little big or bolder, you can use the a light color to make it less bold or weigh less and you can use a dark color to make it more bold or weigh more.

4. Balance Positive & Negative Space: Positive is words or a design you can see & negative is words or a design you cant or barely see. To not be able to see, you would have to add more negative but to be able to see, you would to add more positive.

5. Balance Color: When balancing a color you add different colors to it and when those two colors collide they'll make a new color to your liking.

6. Avoid Adjacent Colors Differing Only In Hue: 

What is the Definition of success to me?

The definition of success to me is achieving your personal goals.

Whether it be somethings real small as in running a mile in 15mins or finding an answer to a problem in your math book.

Success is your own satisfaction.

Success is whether you think something is impossible or possible but its in your determination.

Look up "Occupy Wall Street" and tell me what you think.

This is such a joke and waste of time to watch.

They can't get anyone to speak.

Why? Because 99% of those snotty nose bums don't have a clue as to why they are there other than to get a free meal and t shirt.

If i died tomorrow, what would i want people to remember me by?

If i were to die tomorrow, i'd want people to remember by what i've done.

Like all the things i've done for them or others because when they do something just how i did, they'd think of me.

Test 2

1. The purpose of the spot healing brush tool is to remove blemishes or unwanted stuff in a picture.

2. Opacity means what you apply to a picture will be see through so 0% opacity would make what ever you apply not seeable or completely see through.

Test 1

1. The slice tool cuts into pictures to cut out surtain parts

5. Under the Magic Wand Tool, The Tolerance level is used for how much of the picture of the color you chose it grabs.

8. Click the Eye dropper tool & find the ruler tool. The ruler tool re-sizes a line.

10. I thought the test was pretty unfair. We can't really know how to do something if we don't learn it & using the help button really doesn't help with complex stuff. Teachers go through and show you, to your understanding; A writing on a website showing you how, isn't the same.

Important Things

My iPod is my most important, i would think.

When i turn 18, will i vote?

Yeah i guess i will.
it's a real big deal so i may need to make good decision.
Because if you pick anybody then anybody can mess up the USA.
it's a resposiblity no doubt but one you got to really pay attention to.
Whatever you choice is the destiny of the USA.
If you don't understand why your picking someone then understand or no why you.
Because if you don't, you may be voting for the next Adolf Hitler of United States.
They won't be good, will it? lol

What does the term "school spirit" mean to me?

The term school spirit means a lot to me, i'm hoping!

School spirit is like representing your school.
Some kids have known a high school name since they were in elementary & always wanted to go.
So just going to the school you've always wanted to go to since you were little may cause a lot of school spirit.

if i could change something about the experience i am having at school, what would it be?

I wouldn't change something about the experience i am having at school.
It seems fine to me, couldn't get any better.
We got modern day computers that have a 21" monitor.
My teachers think a lot about what they teach instead of telling us what is in their lesson plan.

What are my career goals?

I probably have two career goals.

My first career goal would be working for a video game production called Blizzard or Valve.
I would enjoy making video games just as much as me playing them.

My second career goal would have to be a DJ/producer for the genre techno.
I'd mostly want to produce hard trance & electronica.
I enjoy music & can't think of any reason to not make music if you think musically about events.

What Should Happen To Parents That Leave Their Children In The Car On A Hot Day?

First off all, i dont know how some could leave their kid in the car on a hot day.
A persons kid should be their pride & joy.
When something is usually your pride & joy, you cant stop being around it.
If a parent leaves their kid in the car on a hot day, they should probably get arrested or something, because that would count as abuse.
